Modern Fall Decor Round Up and GIveaway WINNER

My "boo-hum-bugs" started to get the better of me this week, and I realized tis time to open up my eyes to other ways of incorporating fall decor beyond the standard cornucopia of orange, browns and reds.

There really isn't a lot out there in Pinterestville that pleases my eye, but these images have me almost ready to pick up some pumpkins and twigs on my way home (and I never thought I would say that!)


This table setting above warms my heart. To me, it is the perfect conception of "fall" with a little pumpkin spiced dessert spread, chalkboard menus, and crisp, neutral florals. Parfait!


If you're somewhat colour averse like me, you may appreciate the monochromatic tones of this pumpkin mantlescape and hydrangea wreath. It looks very fresh to me and doesn't make my brain go crazy with thoughts of stabbing pumpkins and acorns.


This is another set of tablescape ideas that just does it for me. I feel like blending rustic and modern creates that perfect fall vibe. Hopefully I will have my own rustic table top soon that I can place some hydrangeas and white dishware on! 


Last but not least, this is about as "themed" as it would ever go for me. Ok, perhaps scratch the fabric pumpkins in the centerpiece; I would probably never take the time to do that. But I do LOVE the wood charger (brilliant idea if you know how to work a saw!), and the calligraphy-ed burlap runner (hmmm, I sense a DIY coming on!), and the chalkboard place card. The mini gourds are small (yay!), white (hoorah!), inexpensive (woot woot) and disposable (hip hip hooray!), so I could probably push myself to go there as well.

Have you found any spins on fall decor that you're loving lately?
